Hmm... Have to love it when the gunshop knows NOT what they have.
So, I had the salesman at Cabela's write up the rifle tagged as "M27 (91/30)" for the $375 asking price, and sent him back to the decision makers to find out how much less they could take if I bought it today. At the register, the clerk rung it up as "On Sale" for $249.99. She signed me up for the Club Card for an additional $20 off.
So, with tax and the discount, I walked out of the store with my new 1935 Sako M28/30 (without the front stock reinforcing bolt?) for the grand sum of $242.99. Not a bad haul. And certainly NOT an M27(91-30).
Excuse the poor pics with my old camera, please. I'll get some better ones later. Thanks for looking.
It's a Finn-made one piece stock with no reinforcing bolt in the forestock. What's up with that?
Cheers.
